Comment (last update: 1-Jul-2008 12:25am) PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY
I live in Japan and all my items are from JAPAN (unless it specifically states otherwise in the comment field - U.S. / EU / PAL etc) so please make sure there are no issues about voltage, power plug type, region (PAL/NTSC) compatability, etc before requesting a trade. Don't plead ignorance after the trade as you have been made fully aware of this condition.
If you have any questions or are unsure about anything, please ask me. I'm happy to provide any info I can or photos of items you are seriously interested in.

ABOUT ME:
I'm an Australian living in Japan. Trading in English or Japanese is OK!
私はオーストラリア人で る。私は日本に住んです。英語か日本語はOK! (Damn, this site doesn`t display Japanese!)
I've been collecting and trading video games for over 20 years and my personal collection is way to big to list on this site. I specialise in rare JAPANESE hardware and software. I personally collect boxed consoles and games, as well as rare, obscure, unreleased, unsuccessful, and mint or sealed items.
I am a member of several local (Japan) trading groups so I have access to alot of cool stuff and have been exporting for over 10 years. If you are looking for a particular Japanese (Import) item that is not listed, drop me a message and I'll let you know if I have one for trade or sale, or if I can get one (conditions apply).
I have alot of items that come and go that I dont have time to list here. Pics are available here: http://photobucket.com/sktuemvie If you are interested in any of these items, please let me know asap before they are sold or traded. Check regularly as new items are added all the time.
Trading/selling/posting info is detailed below if you need it. Thanks for reading. Happy trading!

TRADING DETAILS:
I'm willing to concider any reasonable trade offer, but please make a sensible offer. Otherwise I'm always willing to look though your list.
PLEASE NOTE:
1: I am not interested in Ex-rental items.
2: I am mainly after boxed consoles, complete with manuals and preferably paperwork.
3: Please tell me if items are "Greatest Hits", "Platinum", "Sega Collection", etc versions. This probably will not affect the trade, but I want to know in advance.
4: Please ensure that all items and parts are genuine originals. I am not interested in printed covers or manuals, or non genuine PS2/PS3/GC/etc cases. (don't say it has a box if it is a printed cover or non genuine case)
5: Please tell me if there is any damage to the item that is not already listed. This includes manuals and covers etc. (An item with the disc in excellent condition, but has torn manuals etc is NOT an excellent condition item because the actual value is much lower. The disc/cart is not the only thing that is important to collectors) Again, this may not affect the trade, but I want to know.
POSTING TRADES:
1: If you have less trades than me, OR a "recent ratings" below 95%, OR only a PO Box address, then you must send first.
2: If we have a similar ranking and ratings, we can send at the same time.
3: If you have a significantly higher ranking, I'm happy to send first.
4: If you have an unresolved BTR, I will not trade with you until you resolve it. This is out of respect for the trading community.
5: I do not send to "fake names" or user names. You must provide your real name or registered business name. This is for security and delivery purposes.
6: Please try to post items as soon as possible and let me know of any delay in posting.

SELLING:
My items are not pre-priced for sale so if you want to buy my items, please send me an offer - Dont ask me how much i want as I usually don't have time to research every item. If you are a serious buyer, you will already know how much you are willing to pay.
PAYMENT:
I will only accept paypal. I do NOT accept money order, Western Union, carrier pidgeon, first born child, etc.
POSTING SALES:
1. Items will be posted ONLY after I confirm the funds are received. This is because I use that money to pay for your postage. Selling is not the same as trading as I am receiving nothing in exchange for the postage costs. Of course exceptions will be made to people I have dealt with in the past.
2. I recommend posting internationally using EMS with tracking. This costs more but is safer and quicker for both of us. Ultimately, the choice is yours.
|
BUYING:
Currently, I am not actively buying items from outside Japan. I will make an offer if you have something I want.

BAD TRADERS / TIME WASTERS: The scum of the internet that always seems to float to the top.....or do I just attract idiots? Less than 10 trades on GTZ and already 2 on this list
Dodgy Guy #1
User name: Xorda
Name: Augustin Chenault
address: 22301 31st Street, Bristol, WI 53104. USA
Details: He requested a trade for a Saturn game I had listed as "Import". Then when the game arrived, he complained that it wouldnt work on his US Saturn. He first claimed that I didnt list it as an import, although the Mods confirmed it was listed as an Import. He then prompty changed his bio to add that he didnt want imports, and then told me I had broken his trade rules. Despite his hishonesty, I offered a resolution option but was ignored. I pointed out to him that the item WAS listed as an import (which the mods confirmed) and even my bio stated this before he requested the trade. He then goes and leaves "unacceptable" as my honesty rating. WTF? In the end, the Mods had to come in and clean up the mess.

User name: dnamerchandise
Name: dna Merchandise (doesn't even use his real name - I should have known this would be dodgy)
address: 19452 Mt.Wasatch Dr. Riverside, CA 92508
Details: This guy is a major time waster and a rude trader. He pended a trade on 6th April with the condition of sending immediately. After a week of no contact I messaged him about the trade and he said he would send tomorrow. Since then, Ive messaged 6 times and am ignored, despite him logging in every day and making other trades. I offered that if he has changed his mind to cancel the trade and all is good, but after more than a month of waiting, Ive decided to give up so I'm cancelled the trade myself and still no responce from him. Thanks for nothing loser. 10 seconds of courtousy would have prevented you being added to this list.

Hopefully not you!!
